Chaplains and the Don't Ask Don't Telll Rule
Posted: Sat Dec 04, 2010 10:09 pm
There an article in the Huffington Post in the issues some chaplains will have with repeal of the rule.

Officials of some chaplains' organizations that have opposed the repeal questioned the report's claims of sufficient protections for chaplains who oppose homosexuality.
"I do not expect that anyone who holds fast with the truth as it is in the word of God ... to be allowed to continue on and to advance in their career as I did," said James Poe, a retired Navy captain and former secretary of the International Conference of Evangelical Chaplain
Endorsers.
These same chaplains who deal with other soldiers who when in town, cheat on their wives, visit brothels. Whenever a ship comes into our city brothels do a huge business.
"""Only 27 percent of Americans oppose lifting the ban, according to a poll released Monday (Nov. 29) by the Pew Research Center for the People & the Press and the Pew Forum on Religion & Public Life.
Almost every religious group surveyed supports lifting the ban, according to the Pew poll. Only white evangelicals (48 percent) came close to having a majority opposed to open gays and lesbians serving in the military. White mainline Protestants (62 percent), black Protestants (52 percent) and Catholics (66 percent) all favor allowing gays and lesbians to serve openly.""
And John Stewart does a good analysis of John McCains flipflopping over the issue. Is the man developing alzheimers?
